General Information

Manufactured to meet the highest standards in broadcasting, SmartGen 6.0 encoder furnishes

all the mandatory for this high class equipment features, at competitive price.

Since all DEVA’s products are manufactured to be user friendly in terms of operation,

SmartGen 6.0 comes with simple and reliable programming software: “SmartGen RDS/RBDS

Encoders Manager” and a password protected WEB interface for remote connection.

The local (RS232, USB) and remote (TCP/IP, UDP/IP) interfaces permit fast and full integration

of the RDS/RBDS encoder to the station’s other functions, including message streams for digital

radio and Webcasting. The LCD (2x40) text display and Intuitive Navigation menu are used for

on-site navigation through the menus, quick access to the parameters and the functions and for

altering of their values. In addition, the display visualizes the incoming raw data from the station,

just as the radio of your listeners does.

The need of highly-accurate time source is satised not only by the supported SNTP but also

by the built-in GPS Module. The used GPS technology provides means for synchronizing the unit

with UTC and makes the sub-second timekeeping possible and easy to achieve.

Another impressive feature of SmartGen 6.0 is the SNMP agent software component, which

reports information via SNMP to one or more administrative computers (managers). SmartGen 6.0

complies with SNMPv2C. The function SNMP traps or E-mail notication on user-dened alerts

is also available.

SmartGen 6.0 is supplied with two separate outputs – one for RDS+MPX and one for RDS only.

The two General Purpose Inputs are with user-dened functionality, allowing easy integration of

SmartGen 6.0 to the station’s needs. The four General Purpose Outputs are also user-dened and

allow easy management of external devices, when needed.

Based on the latest RDS technology, SmartGen 6.0 guarantees fully digital synthesis of the

RDS signal, with excellent quality and spectral purity. This advanced device is a cost-eective

solution for sending of TMC, EWS Services and song tagging via the supported RT+ function. The

device can ‘parse’ scrolling text, automatically breaking the phrases into word groups.

Supporting all RDS Applications, in conformity with the European CENELEC and the United

States NRSC standards, SmartGen 6.0 is fully compatible with UECP EBU SPB490 Version 7.05.

In line with the latest technology, SmartGen 6.0 is proved and reliable hardware for 24/7/365

operation.

1. USB Connector - B-Type, for interconnection with PC / USB 2.0 Communication Port

2. TA FLAG - This LED ashes whenever the TA ag is raised, either with a software command or with a switch closure. REMEMBER: the TA ag is

only temporary. It must be turned o as soon as the announcement ends.

3. GPS – When GPS is set as Time Sync Source and GPS x is available, the light will be ashing.

4. USB – Indicates that USB connection has been established

5. LAN – Will be lit when an Ethernet connection is established. The same indicator will blink when there is an Ethernet activity.

6. PILOT LOCK - This LED lights when the encoder has locked to the 19 kHz stereo pilot signal from the stereo generator, either in the sidechain or

the loop-through mode of encoder operation.

7. FREE RUN - Will be lit when no 19kHz pilot is present at the PILOT OR MPX INPUT, and the synchronization source is set to “Auto”, the encoder

defaults to a crystal-controlled internal timebase. This enables RDS transmissions with monaural programming. When synchronization source is set

to “Internal”, the FREE RUN led blinks every second.

8. RDS DATA - This LED ashes dimly as RDS data is being transmitted, serving as an indication that the encoder is operating normally. When

synchronization source is set to “External”, and no 19kHz pilot is present at the PILOT OR MPX INPUT, the LED ashes with period of four blinks

per second to indicate the absence of RDS signal at the encoder’s output. If the RDS output is set to OFF. The LED will not be lit.

9. RDS Quality –When the device is operating normally the indicator will not be lit. When there is presence of BER in the RDS signal, or the lack of

such on the output, the LED indicator will ash.

10. LCD Display

11. Navigational Buttons – UP and DOWN, LEFT and RIGHT and OK buttons are used to navigate through the LCD menus selecting various functions

and parameters.

Operating Recommendations

To ensure normal operation of the DEVA unit, we recommend following the instructions listed

below.

• Install the unit in places with good air conditioning. The unit is designed to operate within the

ambient temperature range of 10 to 50°C. The equipment rack should be ventilated in order

for the device to keep its internal temperature below the maximum ambient temperatures;

• We do not recommend installation in rooms with high humidity, dusty places or other

aggressive conditions;

• Although the device is intended to be installed closed to exciters or transmitters, we do

recommend the device to be located away from abnormally high RF elds.

• Use only checked power supply cables. We strongly recommend the usage of shielded

cables;

• Connect the DEVA unit to reliable power supply sources only. In case of unstable power

supply, please use Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS);

• Use the device only with its top cover on to avoid electromagnetic anomalies. Otherwise,

this may cause problems with the normal functionality of the unit;

• To ensure normal remote operation of the unit, make sure to connect the device to a good

quality Internet connection;

• For the normal operation of your DEVA device, check if the network settings past through

all the required data trac.

Unpacking and inspection

Upon receipt, the equipment should be inspected for possible shipping damages. If such are

found or suspected, notify the carrier at once and contact DEVA Broadcast Ltd. The original

shipping carton box and packing materials should be kept for possible reuse, in case of return for

Warranty repair, for example. Shipping damages as a result of improper packing for return may

invalidate the Warranty!

The packing material (plastic bags, polystyrene, nails, etc.) must never be left within reach

of children, as these items are potential sources of danger.

IT IS VERY IMPORTANT that the “Product Registration Card” included in the Manual be

completed accurately and returned. This will assure coverage of the terms of the Warranty and it will

provide a means of trace in case of lost or stolen equipment. In addition, the user will automatically

receive SERVICE OR MODIFICATION INSTRUCTIONS from DEVA Broadcast Ltd.

Mounting

RACK REQUIREMENTS 1U

The unit mounts in a standard 19-inch equipment rack and requires only 1¾ inches (1U) of

vertical rack space. In order the painted nish around the mounting holes to be protected, the use

of plastic washers is recommended.

RACK REQUIREMENTS COMPACT UNITS

Our customized 1U 19-inch rack accessory provides a professional mounting option for up to

three compact size DEVA units. It is made of milled aluminum and nished in black powder coat.

Two extra blanking panels and set of mounting screws are provided with each rack bracket kit.

STAND-ALONE DEVICES

DEVA’s stand-alone units (Radio Explorer series, BandScanner series, DVB Explorer) do not

require additional tools or installation brackets.
